Sherlock Holmes never struck me as the retiring sort, more the ‘dying in his armchair mid-deduction’ sort. Nonetheless, this is the premise of The Beekeeper’s Picnic—A Sherlockian Adventure, a charming little adventure game that’s just released on Steam. Finally fed up with the detective lark, Holmes retires to the village of Fulworth to start a…
ArmA Reforger has come a long way since its rather thin launch in 2022. A multiplayer-centric military roleplaying toolset, Reforger is part ArmA 3’s Zeus dressed in Bohemia’s snazzy new engine, and part testbed for ArmA 4. It wasn’t vastly well liked when it was released out of Steam Early Access, with the community accusing…
Over the years, The Dark Mod has done a fine job at providing a Thief-like experience in the absence of a proper new entry in the series (there was the 2014 reboot, yet while I like it more than most, ultimately it didn’t live up to the series’ reputation). Originally launched in 2009 as a…

Elon Musk has announced that his AI company, xAI—which we’re told is also working on a videogame—has acquired his social media company, X, in an all-stock transaction. The Musk-to-Musk deal values X at $45 billion before subtracting $12 billion in debt. Before rebranding it as X, Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion in 2022. Last…
Hazelight has been on something of a tear lately with its signature co-op adventures. Its latest game, Split Fiction, has been lighting the sales charts on fire and left PC Gamer editor Fraser Brown thoroughly impressed—he called it “one of the greatest co-op games around.” The game is making its requisite victory lap around the…
Remember when there was kind of a mini-kerfuffle among Fallout fans because Bethesda wouldn’t let you kill children in its games? Because it’s okay to set off a nuclear device in the middle of a populated settlement but murking a lippy 14-year-old who’s probably just going to grow up to be a wasteland raider is…
Build a Rocket Boy, the studio founded by former Rockstar North president Leslie Benzies, has announced the release date for its upcoming game Mindseye, and sure enough it will be out before Grand Theft Auto 6: The big day is June 10, and unlike what we assume will be the case for the next GTA,…
